Maybe, just maybe, if Lebron had been playing for the Knicks and delivered a world championship to Manhattan this would be acceptable. But since he didn't, it's just another attempt to brand and market himself as being bigger and better than he really is.

was listening to NBA radio today on Sirius XM...not sure who was talking, but they were talking about the way Lebron is "really" viewed around the league in locker rooms compared to previous stars.

They estimated that Curry is probably the least respected superstar in the NBA by his peers.....but they also pointed out that most players see Lebron as corny and phony....even heard players refer to him as immature for his social media bs. It was spoke about in contrast to guys like Kobe, Duncan, Jordan, etc.....who they claimed were respected and revered in every NBA locker room._________________"To arrive at a contradiction is to confess an error in one's thinking; to maintain a contradiction is to abdicate one's mind and to evict oneself from the realm of reality."

I thought Kobe was the King of NYC....he did have some great games at MSG.

Jordan was the guy who stepped up the most at MSG._________________"To arrive at a contradiction is to confess an error in one's thinking; to maintain a contradiction is to abdicate one's mind and to evict oneself from the realm of reality." Ayn Rand

In the first awards given out by NBA players two years ago, the players voted Lebron as the guy they secretly wanted on their team, and Curry as the guy who was hardest to guard and most clutch.

Last year, the players voted Curry as MVP and best clutch performer, while Lebron was again voted the player they secretly wanted on their team and the best social media follow.

Kanter is one of those borderline all-stars that talks trash and picks fights with superstars to hype his reputation (similar to Joakim Noah) since his game cannot deliver on its own. With that said, doesn't LeBron consider himself the King of the NBA? How is this news if he's applying his longstanding belief to NY?
